After Action Report
The Warriors edged the Celtics 104-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Warriors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Warriors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
